(Aikido) Morihei Ueshiba's invention
Aikido (合気道) is a Japanese martial arts developed by Morihei Ueshiba as a synthesis of his martial studies, philosophy, and religious beliefs. Morihei Ueshiba was born in Japan on December 14, 1883. As a boy, he often saw local thugs beat up his father for political reasons. He set out to make himself strong so that he could take revenge. He devoted himself to hard physical conditioning and eventually to the practice of martial arts, receiving certificates of mastery in several styles of jujitsu, fencing, and spear fighting. In spite of his impressive physical and martial capabilities, however, he felt very dissatisfied. He began delving into religions in hopes of finding a deeper significance to life, all the while continuing to pursue his studies of budo, or the martial arts.
By combining his martial training with his religious and political ideologies, he created the modern martial art of Aikido. Ueshiba, known as "O Sensei" or "The Grand Teacher" decided on the name "Aikido" in 1942 (before that he called his martial art "aikibudo" and "aikinomichi"). Aikido is often translated as "the Way of unifying (with) " or as "life energy"the Way of harmonious spirit." Ueshiba's goal was to create an art that practitioners could use to defend themselves while also protecting their attacker from injury. Many Aikido techniques are the result of Master Ueshiba's own innovation.Aikido is performed by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it head-on. This requires very little physical energy, as the aikidoka (aikido practitioner) "leads" the attacker's momentum throws or joint locks using entering and turning movements.
Called "new religions," Omotokyo. Omotokyo was (and is) part neo-shintoism, and part socio-poll religions would be united under the banner of omotokyo. One goal of omotokyo has been the unification of all humanity in a single "heavenly kingdom on earth" where political idealism.
